mac80211: simplify RX PN/IV handling
The current rx->queue value is slightly confusing. It is set to 16 on non-QoS frames, including data, and then used for sequence number and PN/IV checks. Until recently, we had a TKIP IV checking bug that had been introduced in 2008 to fix a seqno issue. Before that, we always used TID 0 for checking the PN or IV on non-QoS packets. Go back to the old status for PN/IV checks using the TID 0 counter for non-QoS by splitting up the rx->queue value into "seqno_idx" and "security_idx" in order to avoid confusion in the future. They each have special rules on the value used for non- QoS data frames. Since the handling is now unified, also revert the special TKIP handling from my patch "mac80211: fix TKIP replay vulnerability".
